Radical Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui on Monday apologized to Trump would-be assassin Cole Allen for the treatment he has received in the DC jail.
Cole Allen, the White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooter who was charged with the attempted assassination of President Trump, was placed on “suicide precautions” in the DC jail.
Allen’s attorneys argued that placing their client on suicide precautions is unnecessary and violates his rights.
“Cole Tomas Allen, through undersigned counsel, respectfully requests this Honorable Court order the Department of Corrections (DOC) at the D.C. Jail to remove Mr. Allen from suicide precautions,” Allen’s lawyers wrote.
“Mr. Allen’s placement on suicide watch and suicide precautions amount to violations of his rights under the Due Process Clause to the U.S. Constitution,” they said.
For that reason, Mr. Allen requests the Court order the DOC to remove him from suicide precautions,” Cole Allen’s lawyers wrote in a court filing on Saturday.
Allen’s attorneys also claimed that the DOC intake team who assessed the WHCD shooter “did not note any suicide risk factors.”
The attorneys whined that Cole Allen is not permitted to make phone calls and has no access to a jail tablet.
On Sunday, Cole Allen was taken off ‘suicide precautions.’
During a hearing on Monday, Judge Zia Faruqui apologized to Cole Allen for the restrictive confinement and treatment he received in jail.
Fox News reported:
A federal judge on Monday decried the prison treatment of President Donald Trump’s alleged would-be assassin, and apologized to him for restrictive confinement imposed by jail staff.
Cole Allen, 31, has been in federal custody since prosecutors say he attempted to gain access to White House Correspondents’ Dinner ballroom and kill Trump along with other high-level government officials.
Magistrate Judge Zia Faruqui told an attorney representing the Department of Corrections (DOC) that he was “fascinated and disturbed” by Allen’s treatment in jail. Allen was placed on suicide watch when he was first imprisoned.
Suicide watch protocols mandated that Cole remain 24-hour lockdown in a “safe cell,” have no phone access to call or receive visits from anyone other than his legal team, according to the motion. His lawyers also wanted him to be able to obtain a tablet to assist in his legal defense.
He was also allegedly denied a copy of the Bible despite more than one request.
Cole Allen made his initial appearance in federal court in DC last Monday.
The 31-year-old was previously charged with using a firearm during a crime of violence and assaulting a federal officer with a dangerous weapon.
On Monday, Allen was hit with a total of 3 charges: Attempting to assassinate the president of the United States, transporting a firearm and ammunition with intent to commit a felony and discharging a firearm during a crime of violence.
Last Sunday, it was revealed that Cole Allen wrote a manifesto and expressed his hatred for “pedophile, rapist” Trump.
